Product details
Overview
JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR from Microsemi is a military-grade, voidless-hermetically sealed surface-mount Zener diode rated for 5 W power dissipation at 140 °C end-cap temperature. It provides precise 10.0 V nominal regulation with ±2% tolerance (C suffix), 2.0 Ω dynamic impedance at 125 mA test current, and operates across –65 °C to +175 °C junction temperature. It serves as a high-reliability voltage reference in radiation-hardened avionics power conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR datasheet, JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR pinout, JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR application, or JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its MIL-PRF-19500/356 qualification, hermetic glass package, Category I metallurgical bond, 7 °C/W thermal resistance, and compatibility with high-temperature PCB assembly processes.
Technical Context
This device belongs to the 1N4954US–1N4996US family of surface-mount Zener regulators, designed for fail-safe voltage stabilization in mission-critical analog and power-supply feedback paths. Its voidless-glass construction ensures zero internal delamination under thermal cycling, while triple-layer passivation prevents moisture ingress and surface leakage.
The JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR uses an internal tungsten slug bonded via Category I metallurgy to copper end caps with Sn/Pb finish, enabling stable operation up to 175 °C junction temperature. Its 1.0 V maximum reverse leakage at 7.6 V and 25 °C supports low-power biasing in precision reference chains without compromising stability.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Zener voltage regulation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| JANTXV1N4958US/TR | Same 10.0 V rating but ±5% tolerance (no C suffix); identical package, thermal, and reliability specs | Lacks tight tolerance needed for high-accuracy feedback loops; acceptable where cost sensitivity outweighs precision | Select when ±5% regulation suffices and budget constraints preclude premium tolerance grades |
| JANS1N4958CUS/TR | Same 10.0 V ±2% spec but qualified to JANS level (higher screening, extended testing per MIL-PRF-19500/356) | Required for Class S spaceflight applications; higher cost and longer lead time than JANTXV grade | Choose only when mission assurance requirements mandate JANS-level screening and traceability |
Compared with JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR, the JANTXV1N4958US/TR offers lower cost at reduced voltage accuracy, while the JANS1N4958CUS/TR adds stringent screening for space-qualified designs-neither is pin-compatible replacement without requalification.

FAQ
What is the Zener voltage tolerance of JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR?
The JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR has a nominal Zener voltage of 10.0 V with a tolerance of ±2%, indicated by the "C" suffix in the part number. This tighter tolerance is achieved through post-trim screening and is verified per MIL-PRF-19500/356 test requirements. The JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR maintains this specification across its full operating temperature range of –65 °C to +175 °C.
Does JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR require heatsinking in 5 W operation?
The JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR is rated for 5 W dissipation at 140 °C end-cap temperature with a thermal resistance of 7 °C/W junction-to-end-cap. When mounted on a standard FR-4 PCB with adequate copper area, it can dissipate full 5 W without external heatsinking. However, sustained operation above 140 °C end-cap temperature requires linear derating to zero at 175 °C, so thermal design must ensure end-cap temperature remains within spec.
Is JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR compatible with lead-free reflow processes?
The JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR features copper end caps with Sn/Pb finish, making it incompatible with standard lead-free reflow profiles (which exceed 217 °C). Its maximum soldering temperature is limited to 230 °C for 10 seconds per MIL-STD-202 Method 210. For lead-free assembly, Microsemi recommends evaluating alternative qualified parts or using selective Pb-based soldering for this device.
What does the "JANTXV" prefix indicate for JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR?
The "JANTXV" prefix on JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR denotes compliance with the highest commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) military screening level under MIL-PRF-19500/356, including extended temperature testing, burn-in, and lot acceptance testing. It signifies enhanced reliability over JAN and JANTX grades, with verification of performance at both –65 °C and +175 °C extremes.
How is polarity identified on JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR?
Polarity on the JANTXV1N4958CUS/TR is indicated by a visible cathode band on the glass body. The banded end is the cathode terminal, which connects to the regulated output node in shunt regulator configurations. The unmarked end is the anode. No part marking appears on the device body per specification, and orientation must be confirmed visually before placement.
